The Big Stone River is a chaotic jumble of huge boulders flowing down
the slope of the Taganay mountains in the Southern Urals, on the
territory of Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia. The river of stone is 6 km long
and averages 200 meters in width. Parts of it are 700 meters wide.
The
gigantic rock slide is believed to have occurred during the last
glaciation some 10,000 years ago. At that time, glaciers covered the top
of the ridges of the Taganay mountains reaching heights up to 4,800
meters. Under the immense weight of this ice, the top of the mountain
was pulverized into millions of large boulders. When the ice melted
away, these rocks slowly slide down the hill creating the Big Stone
River. The geological feature is named “river” only because it resembles
as such, not because it actually flows. The rock slide has been sitting
motionless for thousands of years.

"It is good to be prepared. Get some firewood ready" replied the chief.

The chief then called his friend in the national weather service to ask him. " How bad will this winter be?"

The meteorologist said "this will be a pretty cold winter."

The chief then told his people what the meteorologist said. A few weeks later the chief called to ask again, just to be sure.

"Well," said the meteorologist, "its gonna be worse than we thought this year."

Again the chief relayed this to his people and told them to put out more firewood.

Right before the winter came, the chief called the meteorologist once more to ask, "how bad will this winter be?"

The meteorologist said "it's gonna be worse than we thought."

The chief thanked the meteorologist and asked him "how do you get such accurate information?"

"Well, we have teams of scientists that study patterns to predict
what the weather will be like. But we found that the most reliable
method is to just look at how much firewood the native Americans put
out."
